Well, net10 can and should be registered, just as you state in the 
advantages column.  I dislike the thrash, but I expect it is inevitable.
(What happens when we go to 15min RS updates?)

Otherwise, I expect that this is only half of what he should be placing
in the IRR.  Simple dumping of BGP tables does not get you the policy
expressions that most people are using to generate filters.
Is Andrew going to accept any/every thing in the IRR?
